Motor35 Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 in your opinion, what is the difference between these emotions?
CarrieT Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 I have sexually lusted (purely physical) after men with whom I had no intellectual attraction to. For me infatuation is an emotion of youth; I am going to be 48 this year and I don't remember being infatuated with anyone in almost 30 years. Infatuation is that first blush of desire - before there is even lust... Love is the Full Monty; intellectual and sexual desire and understanding. It goes beyond the gonads and pure physical desire and is a complete and satisfying experience - usually because it is reciprocated. If the love is not being reciprocated, than it is still just lust or infatuation.
